Media Tank Creative Rights Conference

I had a great time at Media Tank's Creative Rights Conference in Philadelphia. I served on a panel moderated by Carrie McLaren of StayFree! Magazine. Carrie is the curator of the Illegal Art Exhibit, which features art that has been banned, blocked, or otherwise pursued by copyright holders.

Siva Vaidhyanathan, author of Copyrights and Copywrongs was also on the panel. He explained how copyright law has evolved from a reasonable system to one that is locking out new artists and causing them to change how they make art.

Michael Hernandez de Luna spoke about his art: stamps that he has created, some of which have made it through the mail. Ray Beldner explained that music has experienced a greater copyright attack than the visual arts. Kristin Thomson of the Future of Music Coalition spoke of uses of P2P that are friendly to artists and consumers. Ispoke about Digital Rights Management, privacy, and fair use.
